# 🌞 8760 Energy Simulation Modeling
|
||
> Hourly (8,760 hrs/year) energy-simulation model for **solar project feasibility** using Python + PVsyst. Subject of two journal posts (Mar 2025 "Building Energy Analytics Platform"; Feb 2026 "Understanding 8760 Energy Simulation Models").
|
||
|
||
## What it is
|
||
Simulates solar generation for every hour of the year to drive **accurate financial modeling** — the bridge between energy yield and bankability.
|
||
|
||
## Why it matters
|
||
Core intellectual asset: the technical heart of both [[REModel]] and the ReNew day job. Demonstrates the finance×engineering fusion better than anything.
|
||
|
||
## Concepts to extract → [[60 - Knowledge]]
|
||
- [ ] What is an 8760 model and why hourly granularity matters
|
||
- [ ] PVsyst workflow & outputs
|
||
- [ ] From energy yield → P50/P90 → debt sizing
